Blood and Doom Primers and Trailer Released

About Blood and Doom

Blood and Doom is a new tabletop roleplaying game set in Athyr, a world in peril from malevolent cults that worship the twelve extradimensional entities known as the Heralds of Doom. Should one of these entities claw its way to Athyr’s surface, the fate of the world will be sealed. But amidst the gathering darkness, there are those who seek to unveil the secrets of Athyr’s forgotten past, navigate the labyrinthine web of treachery, and confront the rising tide of monsters that threaten Athyr’s very existence.

In this dark fantasy RPG, you are invited to explore Athyr’s seven realms, from the vast and parched deserts of Ethennia to the treacherous jungles of Ishta, the underhanded court intrigues of Evandyr, the arcane-infused rocky landscapes of The Sundered Wastes, and the mythical reality of The Islands of Roshan. With mechanics that fuel fast-paced, cinematic gameplay, Blood and Doom stays true to the gritty essence of life and death in Athyr.

The creative team includes some of the ENnie Award-winning writers for games such as RuneQuest, Dune: Adventures in the Imperium, Star Trek Adventures, Doctor Who: The Roleplaying Game, Champions, HERO System, The One Ring, and much more. Before its Kickstarter campaign launches on April 4, 2023, you can download 500+ pages of free content, including three Primer books and two free adventures, to start playing Blood and Doom right away.
